pgrVII Posted August 13, 2015 Author Share Posted August 13, 2015 That's bad ass! But how does that "habitat" not smell like swamp-ass? I'm really meticulous about removing anything that may be waste and I run a fan to help keep stagnant air minimalThe cage is screen so it doesn't stagnate like a Glass one has the habit of doing 3 Quote Link to comment

pgrVII Posted August 13, 2015 Author Share Posted August 13, 2015 What about all the moisture.......did I read something about a drip pan or something at some point?Yes,it's under the cage just installed it today,my house has forced air so it's always really dry anyway so that helps. The mist king will probably run 4 times a day for a minute each session,combined with his drinking fountain it's good. The new enclosure I am building soon will have an angled floor that runs into a drain pipe that'll drain into a 5 gallon bucket. 4 Quote Link to comment

amphipod Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 That's bad ass! But how does that "habitat" not smell like swamp-ass? I have a pool of water for my lizard cages bottom ( they live on the sticks) and that tank always has a swampy humid but not particularly unpleasant smell, unless someone dies in there, then there is an unpleasant odor especially when I am not home all day. 1 Quote Link to comment

gena Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 If you clean it out regularly there isn't a smell. At least not with my geckos. I can tell when I've fed them crickets because the poop stinks the next day. Just have to clean it up. I use paper towels as the substrate so I just pull it right out. Very easy. Otherwise the cages have a foresty smell to them from the branches and natural materials in the tanks. 2 Quote Link to comment
